horrible noise
jimthelandyman:
Would driving my landy in difflock for a few weeks with my rear propshaft removed due to a blown diff cause damage to the transfer box? Just swapped the whole rear axle to upgrade to disc brakes and it has a 24 spline diff in it the noise has only started since the new axle was fitted are the 10 spline and 24 spline diffs different ratio? The noise is only when on overrun and dissapears when accelerating. Cheers.

It shouldn't do.
Are you now out of difflock?
jimthelandyman:
Apart from driving in the snow im out of difflock. just seems wierd that it only does it on overrun. Going to check rear diff tommorow i'm thinking that the diff pinion bearing has gone and therefor the pinion is moving about on the crown wheel.
